DOC area for red wine in the Italian region of Tuscany. The vineyards cover 460 hectares of vines in the municipality of Montalcino in the province of Siena. The area is identical to the DOCG wine Brunello di Montalcino, but the production conditions are less restrictive. It is made from 100% single-varietal Sangiovese clone Brunello. The alcohol content must be at least 12% vol. It may be marketed from 1 September of the year following the harvest. This fruity red wine, which can be drunk much earlier, is therefore known as "young Brunello". If the grapes come from classified vineyards, Vigna followed by the vineyard name can be indicated on the label.

Serious sources on the internet are rare - and Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one such source. When researching for my articles, I regularly consult the wein.plus encyclopaedia. There I get reliable and detailed information.
